Gu Nian carried her things back to Lu's house. After giving the fresh black-bone chicken she bought to her aunt, she went upstairs to change clothes. She regarded the incident of meeting Du Yanqiu as an incident and quickly forgot about it.
Who knew that when Lu Shiqian came back from get off work, he threw his suit jacket on the sofa when he entered the room, frowned and asked her: "Did you meet mom today?"
"...Yes." Gu Nian was stunned by his tone and put away his phone, "What's wrong?"
Lu Shiqian's mouth was filled with coldness, "What did you do to her?"
The look on his face was like he was questioning a prisoner, which made Gu Nian become emotional too.
Originally, she had not turned the page about her previous conflicts with Lu Shiqian, but now that this man was questioning her indiscriminately, Gu Nian was certainly unhappy.
Her expression also turned cold, "Then tell me, what did I do?!"
Lu Shiqian looked tired and too lazy to say anything more: "You don't know what you did? Do you know that her lumbar disc herniation is serious? You pushed me like this, and now the disease has returned."
Gu Nian was startled for a moment.
Du Yanqiu could be considered as running away from the supermarket. Her legs and feet looked so nimble. Gu Nian thought she didn't want to ask for trouble, but she turned around and went to complain to her son?
What about getting sick?
Is it true or false?
Gu Nian said expressionlessly: "Then did you send her to the hospital?"
When Lu Shiqian heard her speak like this, his brows furrowed even deeper, "What's your attitude?"
"What attitude do you want from me?" Gu Nian glanced at him, "Why don't you ask me why I met her?"
Thinking of what Du Yanqiu told her in the afternoon, Gu Nian still couldn't control her anger.
She didn't want to explain at first, but when Du Yanqiu came to talk to her about the inheritance, she clearly didn't want Lu Shiqian to feel uncomfortable hearing those words, so she made Du Yanqiu angry.
Besides, when Du Yanqiu fell, it was not her fault in the first place. She didn't push her at all.
It was better now. Gu Nian felt that she was really being sentimental and thought she was protecting Lu Shiqian, but in the end, others still wanted to cause trouble for her.
Lu Shiqian sighed deeply and frowned, "She is injured now. This is the most important thing."
Gu Nian curled his lips mockingly, yes, she is his mother, and of course she is more important to Lu Shiqian than Gu Nian.
Or should I say, in Lu Shiqian's eyes, everything is more important than her care.
"In that case, there's nothing more to say." Gu Nian leaned back on the sofa, "In short, her injury has nothing to do with me."
Lu Shiqian stared at her for a while, as if he didn't expect her to be so unsociable.
He suddenly stepped forward and took Gu Nian's wrist, "You should go and apologize to her."
"I'm not going!"
Lu Shiqian's voice seemed to be at the extreme end of his patience, "Gu Nian, do you think you are still a child? You know how to escape when trouble comes. When will you become more mature?"
Gu Nian was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that Lu Shiqian could take this matter so seriously.
She broke away from Lu Shiqian's hand and sneered. Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by a cell phone ringing.
Lu Shiqian took out his phone, glanced at Gu Nian and answered the call.
It's Si Xue.
The gentle and considerate voice is in stark contrast to Gu Nian, who is now like a little fighting cock.
"Shi Qian, are you home?"
Lu Shiqian raised his hand and tugged on his collar, "Yeah."
He rubbed his brows, as if he was tired, and sat down directly next to Gu Nian.
Si Xue: "I just want to tell you that I took my aunt over and she will stay at my house for the next few days. I will take care of her."
Lu Shiqian frowned, wondering when the two people became so close: "...This is inconvenient."
"It's nothing inconvenient. We're getting married soon anyway, and we're all a family. My aunt has a back injury, so living alone will inevitably be inconvenient. I know you're busy. It's okay. I'll pick her up when you're done.
That’s fine.”
After Si Xue explained, she paused and then said, "If you are free, you can come and stay with your aunt for a few days. She misses you very much."
Gu Nian was very close to Lu Shiqian, and the sound from the receiver reached her ears.
For a moment, Gu Nian felt that she was really incomparable to Si Xue.
She would only make Du Yanqiu angry and argue with Lu Shiqian, but Si Xue was the complete opposite to her.
Gu Nian listened to the two people's remarks about being "a family". For the first time, he didn't feel sad. Instead, he almost laughed out loud.
Who are you accompanying?
Who misses whom?
Why hadn't she found Si Xue so interesting before? He really knew the "way of speaking".
Lu Shiqian glanced at Gu Nian next to him out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly became upset and angry, "You should have told me in advance instead of making a decision in private."
"Shi Qian...are you angry?" Si Xue's voice was soft and soft, revealing a hint of weakness.
Before Lu Shiqian could speak, Du Yanqiu's voice suddenly interrupted: "Shi Qian! Why are you talking? I insist on coming to live with Xiaoxue."
Lu Shiqian was helpless, "...Mom, you should have told me in advance."
"What's there to say? We're all our own people."
Du Yanqiu didn't care. His loud voice was very penetrating, as if he was speaking deliberately to the people next to him.
"Xiaoxue is a doctor and she is so careful. Don't you feel at ease when I live with her?"
"Mom, let me tell you! Xiaoxue is really so considerate! You can have fun marrying such a wife, and you must cherish it! It's not like some people... who know how to be angry with me in one day, and even treat me like that."
Do it!"
Gu Nian, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
The genetics are pretty stable, and both my mother and son like that one.
Lu Shiqian felt a headache after hearing these words, "Mom, please stop talking and have a good rest. Si Xue, I'll bother you for the next few days. If anything happens, call me later."
As soon as he hung up the phone, Gu Nian stood up and said as if nothing happened: "I'm going downstairs first, Aunt Lin is waiting for us to eat."
Lu Shiqian held him back and asked in a deep voice: "Si Xue knows that she has to take care of her, don't you feel any guilt at all?"
Gu Nian turned his head and stared at Lu Shiqian for a long time as if he didn't know him, and finally sneered, "What do I have to feel guilty about? Isn't there someone taking care of her? She has such a good daughter-in-law around her that she can't even think of, so why would she care?
Will I not feel guilty?"
Lu Shiqian's first reaction was that she had indeed heard those words on the phone just now.
Gu Nian's expression at this moment was indifferent with a hint of ridicule, as if everyone she said was related to her.
Lu Shiqian stared at her with deep pool-like eyes, as if to hide the powerlessness in his heart, his voice became a little colder, "Why do you talk like a hedgehog now?"
